An ethnic group is broadly defined as a population whose members identify with one another as distinct from others. This usually occurs through a perceived common history, and often also includes shared culture, race, religion, or language.[1]
The study of ethnic groups falls under the purview of several fields, including anthropology, sociology, and history.
